Cry of a Donkey

Hi, this is Donkey ! an animal with no complain either you love me or disdain I am sad but not mad as you think of me and you dont want to be called by my name for you its a shame ! how cruel is your approach yet you will encroach upon my world to carry the loads of your dirty clothes this is the irony of my agony that I am born like this wish I could be a fish of your pond but alas ! I am just an animal with an ugly sound ! as I am not strong so you will prolong the insult on my community cant i live with dignity????????????????????????????? delete poem this is not a donkey's perpective but i relate myself with this animal too...sorry again!

Someone remarked that this is witty; I look at it with serious eyes musing on those who are quick to find faults in others while failing to notice their own! I also see the gap between upper and lower classes; racism, and people stuck with stigmas...Of course, no deleting, Smriti!! ~ Warm regards // paul

I heard another name for donkey was jacka-- , don't think it means anything bad but.. I wouldn't wanna have anything in common with an animal with a name like that. Enjoyed reading today have a good one.
